Last Updated: 2024/11/09, Vivette Nan Fruit is located in the highlands of northwestern Guatemala, growing at an altitude of 1800-2100 meters. It is the highest coffee-producing area in the country and is famous for producing high-quality beans. Because there are many rivers and lakes in Guatemala, the Vivette Nanguo region is rich in mountains and water resources, dry climate but abundant water resources, and complete water conservancy facilities in this area, so coffee is often washed and added.

Vivette Nan Fruit is located in the highlands of northwestern Guatemala, growing at an altitude of 1800-2100 meters. It is the highest coffee-producing area in the country and is famous for producing high-quality beans. Due to the large number of rivers and lakes in Guatemala, the Vivette Nanguo region is rich in mountains and water resources, dry climate but abundant water resources, and complete water conservancy facilities in the region, coffee is mostly washed and processed. Vivette Nanguo coffee, rich taste, with a high mellow thickness, smoky taste is its most distinctive flavor.

Generally speaking, Arabica coffee grows at an altitude of about 2000 meters, while Robusta grows at an altitude of about 900m. If the altitude is too high, the coffee tree will frost because the temperature is too low, and even can not survive. And Vivette Nanguo coffee even if planted in the highlands of nearly 2000 meters above sea level, it is not easy to appear frost phenomenon, high but not cold growth environment has created high-quality extremely hard beans. This is entirely due to the warm, dry air blowing from the plains of Mexico, which protects the coffee trees from frost.

Like Costa Rica, El Salvador, Mexico, Honduras and other Central American countries, Guatemala's classification is based on altitude. Coffee produced at high altitudes is generally of higher quality than at lower altitudes, because the higher the altitude, the lower the temperature. At high elevations, the slower the coffee grows, the more beneficial it will be to the accumulation of good substances. That's why there is a way to classify quality by altitude. So what is the grading method based on altitude? Let's take Guatemala as an example. The higher the altitude, the higher the density of coffee beans and the higher the grade of raw coffee beans: Guatemala is a presidential republic in Central America, located in the south of the North American continent. It is bordered by the Pacific Ocean to the west, the Caribbean Sea to the east, Mexico to the north and Honduras and El Salvador to the southeast. Coffee was really introduced into Guatemala in 1750 by Father Jesuit, and the coffee industry was developed by German colonists at the end of the 19th century.

Guatemala covers an area of about 108899 square kilometers. The land features can be divided into plateau volcanoes, lowland tropical forests, volcanic sandy shore plains along the Pacific coast, and virgin lands along the Caribbean Sea. The SierraMadre Mountains of Central America, which straddles Guatemala from east to west, covers an area of about 2GP3 and has 34 volcanoes. In this country, rivers and lakes dot the landscape, while equatorial forests and plain jungles cover the land. Today, most of the coffee industry's production takes place in the south of the country and is rich in high-quality coffee beans.

This is because Guatemala is located in the tropics, the northern and eastern coastal plains have a tropical rain forest climate, and the southern mountains have a subtropical climate, with two dry and wet seasons a year, with the wet season from May to October and the dry season from November to April of the following year.

The central plateau is also the cultural center of Guatemala, where temperatures are mild all year round at an altitude of 1300 to 1800 meters, with daily temperatures between 18 and 28 ℃, and higher levels tend to be colder in January and February. The annual precipitation is 2000-3000 mm in the northeast and 500-1000 mm in the south, while the ecological conditions in the south are very suitable for the growth of high-quality Arabica trees. What is more special is that several active volcanoes are distributed in the southern mountains, and these active volcanoes still erupt irregularly. Although they bring instability to the lives of the local people, their rich volcanic ash soil also benefits the local coffee industry and brings rich substances to coffee cultivation.

And most of the Guatemalan coffee beans belong to the bourbon species of Arabica, so almost all the coffee growing areas of Guatemala are in the mountain forest in the south of the country.
